A right-winger wants to raise the voting age.
Vivek Ramaswamy Wants to Raise the Voting Age to 25, Good Idea?
I wonder why?
Because, the youngsters are more progressive.
From the WP via No More Mister Nice: I DON'T THINK THE WORD "REMARKABLE" MEANS WHAT YOU THINK IT MEANS
[The] numbers ... all suggest that today’s young voters are substantially more progressive on these issues than young voters were even five or 10 years ago. Sizable majorities now reject the idea that same-sex relationships are morally wrong (53 percent), support stricter gun laws (63 percent) and want government to provide basic necessities (62 percent).
Meanwhile, support for government doing more to curb climate change soared to 57 percent in 2020 before subsiding to 50 percent this year.... While that 50 percent could be higher, the issue has seen a 21-point shift, and the polling question asks if respondents want action on climate “even at the expense of economic growth.”
And really... the old fuckers are too old.
Mitch McConnell freezes up mid-sentence in news conference, escorted away
Biden is right there with McConnell. Trump is old and fucking crazy.
34 Senators are over 70.
82 members of the House are over 70.
How about making anyone over 70 get the fuck out of government so the people who are going to have to live most of their lives under the rules can set the rules.
Old fuckers.
